1 lb lean ground beef (at least 80%)
1/4 cup chopped onions
1 package (1 oz) taco seasoning mix
1 can (28 oz) diced tomatoes, undrained
1 cup frozen corn
1 cup water
3/4 cup finely shredded Cheddar cheese (3 oz)
(see my tips below)

3:  Stir in tomatoes, corn and water. Heat to boiling then reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes.

Optional for topping:
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped maraschino cherries, drained and patted dry
(see my tips below)

Drizzle with chocolate syrup.  You can also add nuts to the brownie mix.  These maraschino cherries are awesome!  My mother always has these in her little fridge.
